PropertyMetadata Class

Defines certain behavior aspects of a dependency property, including conditions it was registered with.

Namespace: System.Windows
Assembly: System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)

Public Class PropertyMetadata

Visual Basic (Usage)

Dim instance As PropertyMetadata

public class PropertyMetadata

Remarks

In Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), a dependency property can be registered with an owning type, and then you could override the metadata for that property as it existed on a specific type. In Silverlight 2, there is no support for per-type property metadata. The metadata used for a dependency property in Silverlight 2 is always the metadata that is applied by the initially registering and owning type.

Inheritance Hierarchy
